Outcome of glomerulonephritis in live-donor renal transplant recipients: A single-centre experience.

Objectives: To investigate the frequency and risk factors affecting the incidence of post-transplantation glomerulonephritis (GN) and the impact of GN on the survival of the graft and the patient.

Patients And Methods: Patients were classified based on histological findings into three groups. Graft survival was ascertained using the Kaplan-Meier method and significance calculated using log-rank tests.

The Long-Term Effect of Hepatitis C Virus on the Outcome of Live-Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients. A Retrospective Study.

Objectives: Hepatitis C virus infection occurs frequently among end-stage renal disease patients. Moreover, its effect on long-term patient and renal graft survival is controversial. This study was performed to assess the long-term effect of hepatitis C virus on the outcome of kidney allografts.
